Brian King meets lawyers as they battle to achieve justice and defend human rights - often in the face of overwhelming legal and political opposition. These are the stories of local lawyers, sometimes helped by international agencies, grappling with issues of immense importance for the individuals concerned, but which also have serious national and international implications.
